Congressional Election vote preferences

This graph I thought was interesting. It shows preferences in the congressional election from April 2010 through to September 2010. They were tied for a long while until July where Democrats showed in favor, switched to Republicans in August, and now they are closely tied in preference for voters.

Who's to blame?


































































What I thought was interesting in this poll was the duration it is focusing on. I think this is important to note because more than two years following Bush's term in office, America blames the bouts in our economy at a higher level than Obama. In August of 2009 to August 2010 there has only seen a 9% decrease in this view on Bush, and Obama has increased 16%, still a long way from Bush's ratings.

Leadership in the U.S.



 I think it's interesting to see different nation's views of our progress in leadership.







































I think this table is pretty interesting, ratings were actually looking up in June 2009 although I don't know how well that carried out.
